Light granular or waveform?

A recent experiment (November 2) by scientists at the University of Bristol in England showed for the first time that light in the form of particles and waves simultaneously simultaneously can decipher the true nature of the mystery. the light and the whole quantum world.

The experiment uses a type of measuring device that can detect both particles and waves at the same time of light. It works on a kind of strange quantum effect called non-local quantum, a concept that refers to similar particles that can exist in two locations at the same time.

As a result, the measuring device detected light photons that operate at both the waveform and the particle simultaneously. That is like a strong rejection of theoretical models of the nature of light, in which photons belong to only one waveform or particle, physicist Alberto Peruzzo at the University of Bristol, the lead author. of the study said.

At the same time, it is based on the principle of quantum mechanics based on the idea of ​​quantum bonding, in which two quantum particles can bind to the same effect on another particle. In this way, the researchers can allow the photons in the experiment to delay expression into particles or waveforms in nanoseconds.

It is known that the problem of light as waveform or particle has caused debate for decades in the scientific world. Well-known physicists such as Isaac Newton advocated light-particle pig activity, James Clerk Maxwell argued that light was like a wave, and in 1905, Albert Einstein discovered light particles as photons.

Later, scientists believe that light belongs to both particle and waveform. But then the scientific experiments just stop at the conclusion that light belongs to both waveforms and particles but never happens simultaneously.
